Recent gene sequencing suggests that the modern Amborella is a sister genus to the first of these, a group which radiated during the early Cretaceous 130 million years ago. They create a triploid food-storing body when a male gamete and two polar nuclei fuse during their process of double [*] fertilization. This group is separated by number of cotyledons into monocots and dicots, and they use animals and wind to carry pollen from stamens to an ovule enclosed within the pistil of their characteristic part. For 10 points, name this group of plants that grow flowers.
